Top 10 Things Poets Shouldn't Worry About
A sage once remarked that
"Worry is like a rocking chair:
It'll keep you busy but won't
Take you anywhere."
Poets tend to place too
Much emphasis on what
Others think about their work,
Thus here are the top ten things
We shouldn't worry about.
10. The correct style. There is no such thing.
9. If others will like my poem.
8. Has the theme been addressed before.
7. Will it be misunderstood?
6. Is it politically correct.
5. Is it too sexual.
4. Will it be offensive?
3. Have I rewritten it enough times?
2. Will anyone read it?
1. I shoudn't be writing.
We have as much right as anyone
To write poetry or any other style
You may chose. Let your heart dictate
The message. "Don't worry, write happy."
